Protect yourself, protect others. eRouska remembers other eRouska apps you have met. When a user is infected, he/she can easily and anonymously notify others about the risk of infection. eRouska is the official exposure notification app of Czech Republic, developed by the Ministry of Health in collaboration with NAKIT (National Agency for Information and Communication Technology). In the fight against the COVID-19 epidemic, the app aims to notify users, who are at risk of carrying the virus. Based on the history of exposure to other potentially contagious users, the app gives instructions, how to proceed to minimize spread of the epidemic. However, the app is not a medical device and is certainly not a substitute for a doctor. The app is based on Bluetooth Low Energy technology, which is designed to be especially energy-efficient, and it doesn’t collect any geolocation data, including GPS data. The app is developed and released in full compliance with Exposure Notification API Policy requirements, fully GDPR compliant and doesn't collect and directly process any personal data - any data that would identify the user or his mobile device, such as their name, address or telephone number. eRouska is able to determine that contact has taken place between two users without knowing who those users are and where the contact occurred. The app is a part of Czech Smart Quarantine concept and a valuable tool in the fight against COVID-19 epidemic. Every single user increases its overall effectiveness. It is strongly recommended to install the app and encourage others to do likewise. ## Key features - Anonymous contact tracing - Infection risk notification - Epidemic spread minimization guidance - Bluetooth Low Energy technology - GDPR compliant - Part of Smart Quarantine concept ## Recent user reviews (8 of 8) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/erouska/id1509210215/reviews.md ### 4/5 — Sad that it doesn’t work anymore *2021-12-22* Seeing the spike on COVID cases, the society would benefit from anonymous tracing tools such as this eRouska ### 1/5 — Nefunkcni e rouska *2020-11-24, version 2.2.3* Zadne upozorneni neprislo ! hygiena kontaktovala zelefonem az 3 dny po pozitivnim kontaktu dodnes nic na upozorneni neprislo prestoze e rousku ma zapnutou a moje udaje byly predany asi to vubec nefunguje zbytecna aplikace —rusim!! ### 5/5 — Good application *2020-10-17, version 2.1.3* Good to see the Czech Republic has developed an app using the exposure notifications API. Everyone living or travelling in CZ should install it ### 2/5 — Bohužel jen na systém 13.5 a výše *2020-10-13* To je škoda. Na svém hlavním telefonu nám 13.4 a 14ctku nechci. Je to iPhone SE. Má-li být aplikace efektivní, stálo by podle mne za to ji udělat dostupnou pro co nejvíce lidí **Developer response:** iPhone SE by ml umět i 13.5 - což je nejnižší podporovaná verze (určil Apple) ### 5/5 — Needs updated to include English *2020-10-09* There are a lot of foreign expats living in ČR, so in order to be able to use this application better, it should include English language support. Thank you. If it included English language support I would give it 5 stars. Updated review 09 October 2020... application is now also in English. Works well, does not use any extra battery life and easy to use. Thank you for your quick response to the request... **Developer response:** English version is available at version 2.1.3. - newest in the App Store ### 5/5 — Good update *2020-09-25* Finally app offers support for COVID Apple/Google API, unfortunately our Czech nation is so reluctant to install application which can help, arguing that it can monitor them, on the other hand having operating system in their pockets which is watching every single step they are doing. Using social networks which are using their data to making money. How hilarious! 😐 **Developer response:** Updated version is expected in first half of September in AppStore. ### 1/5 — Nelze aktivovat *2020-09-18* Aplikace mi nejde aktivovat. V procesu aktivace chce v nastaveni zapnout notifikace, ale v nastaveni tato volba vubec neni k vyberu. Pak je to cele k nicemu. Zkousel jsem restartovat, preinstalovat, nic z toho nepomohlo. ### 5/5 — Užitečná aplikace *2020-05-04* Zdá se, že vše funguje jak má. Možnost být upozorněny v případě většího rizika nákazy velice docením, mužů se v takovém případě vyhnout kontaktu s rodiči. ## Frequently asked questions about eRouška ### What is eRouška? eRouška is the official exposure notification app of the Czech Republic, developed by the Ministry of Health.
